1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a significant complication following liver surgery (LS) for primary liver cancer (PLC), contributing to increased morbidity, prolonged hospital stays, and higher healthcare costs. This study aimed to evaluate the association of perioperative nursing care (PNC) with the incidence of SSIs and short-term outcomes, comparing patients receiving structured PNC to those receiving standard care. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at [specific location] between January 2016 and February 2019. A total of 360 PLC patients undergoing LS were included and divided into an observation group (PNC) and a control group (standard care). Outcome measures included SSI incidence, length of hospital stay, and independent predictors of SSIs. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify significant factors. Results: Among the 360 included PLC patients, 180 received PNC while 180 did not. Patients in the PLC group had a significantly lower incidence of SSIs (28.3% vs 47.2%, P = 0.026) and shorter hospital stays (median: 8.2 vs 13.3 days, P = 0.049) compared to the control group. Multivariate logistic regression identified PNC as a significant protective factor against SSIs (OR = 2.01, 95% CI: 1.08-3.85, P = 0.031). Other significant predictors included education level (college or above: OR = 0.44, 95% CI: 0.24-0.79, P = 0.006) and comorbidities (more than two: OR = 2.21, 95% CI: 1.31-3.76, P = 0.003). Conclusion: PNC emerged as an independent risk factor for SSIs in PLC patients undergoing LS. Thus, the provision of PNC is crucial for reducing the risk of SSIs and improving short-term outcomes in PLC patients undergoing LS.
